    OrganizedChaos replied to nomadicnurse's topic in LPN to RN

    I agree with the PP, say no. Explain to them that you are in school full time as well as working full time. You have done your work & can't pick up any extra work. As long as you have done your...

    OrganizedChaos replied to 2bnursenadia30's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Calling in treats for unit when home sick?

    OrganizedChaos replied to MIRN923's topic in General Nursing

    Are you a new nurse? I'm just wondering because I have never heard of any nurse or anyone period wanting to send baked goods to work just because they were sick. It's life, things happen. You can...

    OrganizedChaos replied to fangirl's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The worst one I can remember was when I worked in corrections. I was doing pill call & the inmate refused his meds, walked away, came back & wanted his meds. I tried to educate to him about...

    Any input is greatly appreciated

    OrganizedChaos replied to wisconsin89's topic in General Nursing

    If you have no kids & it's just you & your boyfriend, why don't you move? You could get your ADN, work & have kids sooner than if you did your BSN. Most pre-reqs for the ADN program can be...

    Need some advice

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mickle372's topic in General Students

    It depends where you are & how competitive the nursing programs are. I got in to a nursing program (bridge program) & I didn't have all As. So there really is no way for us to tell you since...

    Why do nurses seem to have a bad reputation?

    OrganizedChaos replied to unbrokenx3's topic in General Nursing

    THAT'S what it was called! I just remember it was horrible. MTV got a lot of flack from nurses & then the show was canceled or something to that effect. I never watched it, the previews were...

    I'm at a loss. There have been two posts by two different people upset because they didn't get their dream job. You're a new grad & had TWO interviews AND a job offer! Do you know how many new...

    OrganizedChaos replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    As long as the inmates treat me with respect, then I treat them with respect. But when they don't, I expect the C.O. to say something. If I'm with a bad C.O. & it has happened before, then I...

    Why do nurses seem to have a bad reputation?

    OrganizedChaos replied to unbrokenx3's topic in General Nursing

    She would do both. Also random things I don't remember. Like go to the boys/girls unit & look for things like peeling paint. I don't know, I know she did things at times. But she got on my nerves...
